Abstract: Apparatus for spatially interpolating between lines of a digital video signal, to produce interpolated lines, comprises a supersampler (11) that horizontally interpolates between samples of the video signal to produce a supersampled signal comprising the original samples and at least one interpolated sample located between each adjacent pair of original samples. Block matching circuits (SD(-4) to SD(+4)) each determine, for each sample of the supersampled signal, the extent of matching between two blocks of N X M samples of the supersampled signal (where N is the number of lines and M is the number of samples), the two blocks being vertically offset from one another in opposite directions with respect to a line to be interpolated, and being horizontally offset from one another in opposite directions with respect to a predetermined sample position (X). Each block matching circuit (SD(-4) to SD(+4)) operates as set forth for a respective different horizontal offset, including zero offset and offsets on opposite sides of zero, whereby a respective value of the extent of matching is produced for each horizontal offset. A selector (26) is responsive to the respective values produced by the block matching circuits (SD(-4) to SD(+4)) to select, for each sample of the line to be interpolated, from a plurality of gradient vectors each associated with a respective one of the different horizontal offsets, the gradient vector associated with the horizontal offset that produces the greatest extent of matching between the two blocks. A variable direction spatial interpolator (14, 16, 18, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46) spatially interpolates the video signal. The direction of interpolation of the spatial interpolator is controlled, for each sample it generates, in accordance with the gradient vector selected for said predetermined sample position (X) corresponding to that generated sample.

Abstract: The attitude of a space vehicle (10) is controlled to direct an instrument (24) in a particular direction. For certain maneuvers, the reorientation may temporarily result in an undesirable orientation of the spacecraft. For example, the instrument may be a telescope which, during slewing of the spacecraft from one direction (26) in space to another (28), may pass through an attitude in which it is directed (30) toward the. Sun (12). A control system is provided which performs the attitude control with an avoidance constraint. The control system generates a first error signal representative of the difference between the current and desired final orientations, and slews the attitude in response thereto. An avoidance error signal is also generated which represents the difference between the current orientation of a vector associated with the spacecraft and a vector in space which it is to avoid. A threshold signal is generated when the difference between the last two vectors reaches a particular value, whereupon the control system slews in response to a combination of the two error signals.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrical connector comprising a multi-terminal plug and multi-terminal socket in which each female terminal is composed of a contact section (2), a solder tail section (3) and intermediate curved joint (4) integrally connected to the contact section and the soldering tail section. The curved joint of each female terminal will be yieldingly bent when an external force is applied to push the male terminal in the female terminal, thereby absorbing the external force and preventing deformation of the solder tail section (3), and hence peeling-off or cracking of solder at the solder tail. The intermediate curved section (4) will also permit the contact section (2) to float in order to compensate for the misalignment of the contact section relative to its mating pin.

Abstract: Reactive metals such as titanium and nickel-­chrome superalloys containing rare earths, are cast with mold and/or core surface areas formed from an improved slurry. The improved slurry contains yttria to form an inert surface which is exposed to the molten reactive metal. In order to prevent premature gelation of the slurry, the forming of defects in the mold and/or core surface areas, and the forming of defects in the cast article, the slurry contains a source of hydroxyl ions sufficient to result in the slurry having a pH of at least 10.2 six days after initially mixing the slurry. The source of hydroxyl ions may be an alkali metal or an organic hydroxide. The source of hydroxyl ions is believed to function as a hydration suppressant for the yttria to prevent premature gelation of the slurry. The slurry preferably contains a silica to alkali ratio which is equivalent to a silica to sodium oxide (Na₂O) dry weight ratio of less than 30:1.
